Mary alene i byen - Mary to town alone.
Written by Frodi Holm Knudsen.
As you now Mary was present in the Royal Theatre at the Reumert Award show. And here are some of the things the conferencier, Ditte Hansen teasingly said to and about Mary: "Tonight we're going full throttle. And then Her Royal Higness will shed some brilliance over the Reumert of the Year. Later she will throw confetti - her place is very suited for that.
Mom is alone to town, His Royal Highness is babysitting. So is my husband. We are in many ways alike, Her Royal Highness and I. Two sort of Sex and the City-girls, who give birth and snap, lose twenty kilos and go to work.
Vincent and Josephine. Weeell, that sound's like a (somewhat cheesy) musical in Tivoli. But that's not bad. I mean the DRF is in many ways like the theatre, they are also dependent of public funding, (they) always wear beautiful contumes and some of them have funny teeth, like Søren Østergaard (comedian/actor). - We love you, thanks for the show, so far".
And as you know when asked Mary said she was not offended.
- Still don't see what was funny in that.
Female humour....
ADDED: We are informed that Mary wore Prada on her feet to the Royal Theatre.

Dejligt at være med igen - Nice to be involved again.
Written by Anna Johannesen.
Mary inagurated the Sun Campaign 2011 at Glyptoteket in Copenhagen.
The event lasted a couple of hours.
It's now the fifth time Mary opens this campain, which focus on awareness of the sun, especially in the early afternoon.
She said in her speech: "As most who come from Australia I have a respect for the sun. When I came to Denmark I was therefore surprised to learn that the Danes have a completely different attitude to the sun. Admittedly Denmark is not percieved as a sunny country, but today skin cancer is the biggest form for cancer with more than 9.000 cases a year - and the number is rising".
Some dancers wrapped Mary in yellow ribbons and she ended up cutting them. - (No, I don't know what the dancers were supposed to depict).
Our reporter cornered Mary towards the end and asked Mary how she was doing in getting Frederik to protect himself against the sun.
Mary: "He's become better at it. - Repetition works". (*)
Q: Have you missed work?
Mary: "Oh, I still have plenty to do at home".
(*) Read: Continious nagging works. - Welcome in the club, Frederik.
